“Summer, PPF Maintenance Guide Attack”
In the hot summer, the car’s PPF (Paint Protection Film) also needs special care and maintenance, in order to continue to play its excellent performance, to protect our cars.
First of all, the sun is strong in summer, and the UV intensity is high. Although PPF has a certain ability to resist ultraviolet rays, it also has a certain risk of aging when exposed to sunlight for a long time. Therefore, try to park your vehicle in the shade, such as an underground car park or a place with shade facilities. If you can only park outdoors, you can also consider using a shade to reduce the damage of direct sunlight on PPF and car paint.
Secondly, there is more rain in summer, and the rain may contain acidic substances or impurities. After the rain, the vehicle should be cleaned in time. When cleaning, use a mild car cleaner and soft cleaning tools, and avoid using a rough sponge or brush that will scratch the PPF. At the same time, pay attention to rinse well to prevent detergent residue.
Furthermore, the frequency of car washing should be appropriate. Too frequent car washing may wear the surface of the PPF, while not washing for a long time will allow dirt to accumulate, increase the difficulty of cleaning, and may even cause damage to the PPF. In general, it is more appropriate to wash the car every 1-2 weeks.
In addition, avoid using harsh chemical solvents or cleaners to clean PPF. These substances may damage the structure of the PPF and reduce its protective properties. If you encounter difficult to clean stains, you can consult a professional car beauty shop or PPF installer for appropriate cleaning advice.
It is also important to avoid hot objects coming into direct contact with PPF. For example, freshly extinguished cigarette butts, hot tableware, etc., high temperatures may cause deformation or damage to the PPF.
In short, in the summer, as long as we give the PPF proper maintenance, it can continue to provide reliable protection for our cars, so that our cars are still shining in the summer and maintain the best condition. Let’s start from these details, let the PPF better play a role, extend its service life, protect our cars, and enjoy the beautiful summer travel time together.
